A new run on the Large Hadron Collider lasting until 2011 is hoping to solve the mystery of what gives mass to matter. The run will last a whole two years non-stop, a spokesman for the project has expressed hope that the elusive Higgs Boson particle could make an appearance during that time.

"Scientists operating the "Big Bang" particle collider at CERN could solve the mystery of what gives mass to matter during a nearly two-year non-stop run lasting until late 2011, a spokesman said on Wednesday."

This will be very interesting!

No, God will stop this as proven by this article. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/science/biology_evolution/article6879293.ece

Nielsen’s idea has been likened to that of a man travelling back through time and killing his own grandfather. “Our theory suggests that any machine trying to make the Higgs shall have bad luck,” he said.

“It is based on mathematics, but you could explain it by saying that God rather hates Higgs particles and attempts to avoid them.”

His warnings come at a sensitive time for Cern, which is about to make its second attempt to fire up the LHC. The idea is to accelerate protons to almost the speed of light around the machine’s 17-mile underground circular racetrack and then smash them together.

In theory the machine will create tiny replicas of the primordial “big bang” fireball thought to have marked the creation of the universe. But if Nielsen and Ninomiya are right, this latest build-up will inevitably get nowhere, as will those that come after — until eventually Cern abandons the idea altogether.
